I have blogged already on the complexities of knowing how to build a perfect academic career path. Knowing which grant to go for, which funders, which collaborators and so on can be a minefield if you don’t have a great mentor to guide you through it.
One of the key aims of the BRAD framework is to help academic staff identify their skills and areas for improvements to help them get to where they need to be in their career. And it is helpful if you know where you want to end up.
Prof Adrian Newton is one of our most established researchers and will share his advice with colleagues attending. This will include how to develop your career to become an established researcher. The session is taking place on the afternoon of 2 December and spaces for this session are limited, so you will need to book via the Staff Development webpage.
